This Personal Assistant customised qualification is perfect for anyone looking to advance their skill set or look to a new career without giving up their current job.

The most important asset for any business, irrespective of its size, industry or sector, is its people. How they perform is not their only concern, but how they are supported to do their job.

Personal assistants are an essential part of the support process in any business or organisation, as well as contributing to moving the business forward.

Personal assistant training courses cover a wide variety of topics. This alone should demonstrate the value that companies and businesses place on the skills and abilities of a PA.

It is widely accepted that a PA offers strong administrative support for senior management, from diary management to travel management. However, the position of PA requires more than a smattering of admin skills and abilities which is why comprehensive PA courses online are a shrewd move for anyone currently acting as a PA or want to pursue a career as one.

The modules look at a wide variety of areas that a PA can be expected to encounter;

• Understanding organisation structure and culture is an integral part of being a personal assistant
• PAs are expected to have a professional approach at all times
• Effective communication is also examined in some detail, as are the skills of time management
• Managing business information and data is an integral role for a PA
• Developing and maintaining office management systems, procedures and policies are often the responsibility of a PA
• Developing customer service relations, and working well with others is also expected
• Legal and regulatory requirements may also be under the remit of a PA
• There is no doubt that during your career as a PA, you will be called upon to handle sensitive or difficult situations
